    That is correct. Nothing yet. Biggest moves are Cam Johnson for MPJ, Brook Lopez to Clippers, and Horford to Warriors.

    Clarkson to the Knicks is huge. Wonder what the $$ is.

    Houston is a different team. Not all teams sit back and twiddle their thumbs

    I would add Finney-Smith and Capela to Houston is also a big news.

    A worse team. KD hasn’t been a needle mover in years. He tanked the Suns. He’ll tank the Rockets IF he’s healthy. They’ll regret trading Jalen Green. Would you have been happy if we traded Sharpe for KD?

    did Milwaukee give Giannis any reason not to leave?

    No - but interesting that Atlanta now controls the Bucks 2026 lottery pick. Their probably the only team besides us that could be a key partner in a Giannis trade.

    Insane that NOP gave that up to only move up to #13 and take Queen.

    Yes $285mil extension is over 70 mil per season.

    Going to make it hard for the Thunder to pay all of these guys.
    Chet+Jalen due new contracts next summer (likely 2xMax)
    Dort the year after
    Caruso is on their cap until 2029 at $22 million

    Can't fit all of those guys. They'll probably trade one of Shae/Chet/Jalen/Dort for pick(s). I really have no idea who it will be. They will run it back at least this upcoming season and even the season after Shae extension wont kick in. So they can probably wait for 2 years to do any big move.

    Perfect for a sign and trade with an expiring Jrue and a pick

    Wow, and N.O. gave up Indy's 2026 pick for pick 23. Which they then gave up the 2026 milwaukee pick to move up to 13! LOL. comedy of errors by Dumars.

    113 over 2 years, stretched meaning 22.6 million of dead money for the next 5 seasons for Milwaukee?!

    Dame gets paid anyway, but it still is disrespectful. The new CBA is a bitch.

    Means the Bucks are not trading Giannis - and that's probably not a bad thing for Portland's picks - Let Giannis age in Milwaukee now and restart their rebuild later when the picks convey.

    never thought I'd see the stretch provision used like that

    looks like this is how Milwaukee was able to afford Turner?
